THE DAUNTLEss AT ANCHOR.
She Crosses the Finishing Line Yesterday
Evening at 6:45 O'clock.

QUEENsTowN, March 2S.-The Dauntless
crossed the finishing line at As o'clock.
Her actual time on passage was led. b.
43 min. and l3 sec. She has been towed
into the harbOr, and is now safely at
anchor. All on board are well, and the
yacht is in as good shape as when she left
Owls Head, nothing having been carried
away. She experience about the same
weather as the CoToneJ. 4 comparison of
the logs of the two racers indicates that
they followed about the same course.
Nr. Caldwell Colt, owner of the Daunt-
less, says that he encountered more wind
than he bargained for. For sixteen hours
his boat was Obliged TO lay 10. Once she
scudded before the gale under bare poles.
When last seen fIom the deck of the Cor0-
net on the evening of the start the Daunt-
less was steering south southeast, but during
the night her course was changed to moth
east by east. On March 16 she ran into a
cross sea, with strong southeast gale. OIL
was used with good effect to break the
waves, and the yacht weathered her first
storm well. Next day the sea was even
more turbulent and broke over the deck in
rapid succession, wrenchipg the yacht so
much that she began to leak slightly. The
temperature OF both air and water on
the afternoon of the 18th indicated that
ice was in close proximity. and il was nee
essary to use pTecaution in running. At
midnight the thermometer registered
forty-four degrees aud the water
thirty-fve. An hour later the tempera-
ture OF the air was 40 degrees and the water
2S. At 6 O'Clock on the night of the 18th,
when a heavy gale was blowing from south
west, a smooth stretch Of water was run
into. Its temperature indicated that there
were icebergs near. There was a quantity
of field ice to the leeward and very near.
On the Goth. 21st and 22d there we're gales.
1t was on the last of those days that the
Dauntless hove to- Since last Thursday
the weather was fine. On the 25th a run
of 328 miles was made, which is said TO be
the best ever made by a yacht on the At
lantic Ocean.
Fastnst light was sighted at 80 in the
morning, but the wind had died out and
the run along the coast was slow. The fol-
lowing extracts from the log-book of the
Dauntless shows the latitude and longitude
and distance made each day:

IRISH CRIMINAL LAW BILL.
The Govern meIt { Leader Moves That 1t Be
Passed to It's Sc cOnd Reading.

LONDON. March 2S.-In the House of
Commons last night W. II. Smith, Coy
eminent leader, inIim sted that the Govern
ment lad decided to ask the House TO pass
to It's second reading the Irish criminal
law amendment bill before proposing the
usual Easter holidays. lCheers, counter
cheers]. The Government, said Mr..
Smith, disavowed any intention
to menace the House, but they
wished the members to understand that
the measure was vital to order in Ireland;
that it was one upon which the Govern
ment staked its existence; more important
than the holidays.
Mr.. Balfour, Chief Secretary for Ireland,
moved the first reading OF the bill In
doing so he referred to the terms of
Mr.. Parnell's proposed amendment
to the bill, in which the Irish
leader claims the House should obtain
further information about the condition Of
Ireland. Mr.. Balfour thought the Parnell-
ties were sufficiently informed of the state
of their country and should recognize Irish
anarchy as en- aTtihcer recognizes his own
work. The Government did not rest easy
on the statistics of sgrarian crime. They
took il that the amount Of crime must be
considered in COD junction with its causes
and character. The amounts shown
at the present moment were 49S persons in
Munster, 175 in Connaught and, 251 in
LelA1SleI unUcI pOl4Cc pIOtcCtlOn. LAW
had been set aside. The vacuum had not
been filed by ordinary law.
Here BalfOur read a number of charges
made by Judges to Grand Juries, showing
the number of persons actually charged
bore no relation TO the amount of crime.
Boyeotting and intimidation, be said,
were rampant in that part of The country
most disturbed. Men who gave testimony
we're not partisans (Psrnellite cries of dis
seEt). Paralysis of the courts of law was
an evil necessary TO be specially
checked. 1t arose from the difficulty
of inducing intimidated witnesses to speak
oat. In 755 cases 422 injured parties were
so terrified that they refused to oappear.
When evidence was obtained the juries de-
clined even in the clearest of cases to con-
vict.
Here he adduced a long list of the cases
in which the juries disregarded the eyi-
dence presented.
The place which the law ought to fill was
occupied by the National League. The
members OF the League relied upon secret
societies, dynamite and dagger. It was an
absurd tTavesty of facts, he declared, TO
say the League had any resemblance to
trades unions. The initial policy of the
League was combination for the plunder of
individuals with the destruction of the
Constitution.
The speaker proceeded to give Instances
OF boycottiDg, but was repeatedly inter
Tupted by demands from the ParneIlites
for the names of the persons boycotted.
He declined, however, TO give names unless
tbs persons were beyond the reach of the
members Of the League.

Assistant Secretary Fairchild's Decision
as to the Country of Expectation.
WASHINGTON, March 2S.-The Collector
of Customs at Philadelphia has submitted
for the decision of the Treasury Depart
ment a question as to what shall be con-
sidered the country of expectation in the
case CT certain Persian wool which arrived
at Philadelphia from London, consigned to
local merchants. The appraiser estimates
the dutiable value of the wool at its market
value in London on the date of expectation
to the United States. The importers pro-
test against this action. They represented
that the merchandise was purchased at
Basdad for shipment at Bussoras to a port
in the United States as directly as the
means of transportation would allow, Lon
don being only port of transhipment, oc-
casioned by the fact that there is
no direct communication between
Bussoras and Philadelphia. They hold,
therefore, that the market value of the
wool at Bussoras on the date OF expectation
is the value to be estimated for the purpose
of fixing the classification of the wool.
In letter to the Collector at Phila-
delphia on the subject Acting Secretary
Fairchild says that under the provisions of
the wool schedule the duty on woods is de-
pendent upon the value thereof at the last
port or place whence imported to the
United States. The functions of the D.
praiser are therefore, he says, restricted to
the finding of the last port of SHIPMENT,
which they are to determine by all reason
able means in their power, and from this
decision the only remedy accorded import
ers is to reappraisement.

to day in the United States Circuit Court

Excitement in the Coffee market.

New YORK, March 2S.-There was more
excitement in the coffee market to-day
than for long time. There has been quite
a short interest and Brazil receipts have
been very small. There are also apprehen-
sions that the import tax on flour by put
ing that tax on American -four, which has
been our leading export to Brazil, will in
crease our freight cost. The advance was
Ia francs and the market opened here 90
points higher. The sales were over 100, 600
bags by noon and one house bought all the
April that was offered at 13 GO. The
"shorts" were badly frightened.

the people were capable of sanctioning the
measure he would give up forever the hope
of seeing the Irish and the English shake

man could live unless he lived like slave,
or If the people were willing, he would
be proud and happy to lead them in
battle. lCheers. The measure would only
result in causing increased disorganization
and driving the people back TO the horrors
of former years. Cheers Earl Spencer,
believing his life to be in danger, had the
courage 10 face the people of Ireland like a
man but small credit was due to the pres
ent Government, who did not know the

on which to found coercion had never been
heard. Mr.. BalfoUr had succeeded IN prov
ing nothing but his own ignorance of the
country which he sought 10 govern. The
sooner he quilted Office the better for Ire
land and for himself. The Government
were practically treating Irishmen like
slaves. They sought 10 root them out like

the prospect OF a favorable land purchase
bill. II this coercion bill passed neither a
land purchase bill nor any other Irish
measure would live TO be accepted at the
